Manaslu Expedition, 2013, October

Himalayan Trail Blazer Trekking & Expedition proudly announced the successful conclusion of its Manaslu Expedition – Autumn 2013. At the break of dawn, the team achieved its long-awaited goal of reaching the summit of Mt. Manaslu (8,163 m), the world’s eighth-highest mountain.

The expedition was organized by Himalayan Trail Blazer and led by renowned American climber Ryan Waters, who, along with a diverse group of international climbers, successfully stood atop the majestic peak. Their success marked an important milestone for the team, showcasing determination, teamwork, and high-altitude mountaineering expertise.

According to the Surdar (climbing leader) Mr. Ryan Waters, the climb was both challenging and rewarding, with the team overcoming difficult conditions to finally stand on the summit of the “Spirit Mountain.” Alongside the international members, two experienced Sherpa climbers from Himalayan Trail Blazer also reached the summit in October 2013, continuing the proud tradition of Nepalese mountaineering excellence.

This achievement not only reflects the courage and skill of the climbers but also highlights Himalayan Trail Blazer’s commitment to organizing safe, professional, and successful expeditions in the high Himalayas.

From the meticulous planning to the on-ground support, their expertise was evident at every step. I felt fully supported throughout the journey, and the experience remains one of the most memorable adventures of my life. I would highly recommend Himalayan Trail Blazer to anyone seeking a genuine and well-organized Himalayan expedition.”
